One Angry Hormonal Mess

I swear pregnancy gives me a split personality disorder!!!
Yesterday I was so happy, excited for Christmas, new year, the pregnancy and feeling really positive!!
Today OMG I have been completely unreasonable & at times hysterical & completely unconsolable! It got to the point where a colleague was like “I think you should just go home”! I didn’t go home... I just cried about being a mess 🙄
The slightest thing has annoyed or upset me today... I have overthought EVERYTHING & been so negative!

Roll on second trimester where hormones settle for a while and I can be a reasonable human being again!
